AFTER THE KAVANAUGH HEARINGS, SCREW A WAVE, ‘WE THE PEOPLE’ BETTER VOTE, IF THE DEMOCRATS DON’T HAVE A BLUE TSUNAMI AMERICA’S TOAST!

Instead of dealing with yet another historic hurricane disaster, Trump meets with Kanye? This after the soulless, heartless, sellout Republicans rammed his Supreme Court perjuring savior through, both showcasing exactly what is wrong with politics, and why every vote really matters. 

PLEASE SOMEONE WAKE ME UP FROM THIS NIGHTMARE! It keeps getting worse, and this time its taken me almost a month to wrap my head about what we just lived through. Sorry, but I’m warning you in advance, that this is one of those long ones. Simply put, too much has happened, at too fast a pace, to write a quickie. To my regular readers, and to those who are dropping by for the first time, first thanks, sometimes what I write reads like I’m trying to help keep myself sane by getting my thoughts and opinions out, as I try to figure out or find something good in anything we’ve suffered through. Perhaps one of these days, if I keep typing away, reliving what I’m trying to figure out, something constructive could be discovered. Maybe by connecting the dots the answers to our questions will show themselves. As we witness the possible death of our Democracy right in front of our faces, occurring in real time, I am stunned at how quickly we’ve gone from people laughing out loud at the idea of Trump even running for President, and how we are now on the cusp of over throwing our very sacred Democracy and installing a possible dictator or worse, the second coming of Adolf Hitler. And yes, I went there.

Most importantly, how is it possible that a man supposedly being investigated for treason, who possibly colluded with Russians to steal an American presidency, was allowed to choose a savior in the courts? I listened to the excuses or better lies Republicans used to explain why it was so necessary to add that new member to the court so quickly, but if we could wait over a year for the 2016 Presidential election, we could’ve waited a few months for the upcoming mid-term election. As they kept explaining then, let the people decide who should be allowed to choose a Supreme Court judge. Forgetting the fact that the people had elected a President, Barack Obama, to do just that and he had over a year and a half left in his term! The people are choosing in less then a month if Democrats get a seat back at the table, if they aren’t too happy with the way Trump and his minions have done their jobs while in charge. With just that written, excluding any talk about his choice, the people in power should have simply waited a few months. Any person that Trump chose before the election, would be suspect even if they turned out to be Saints. But Trump ain’t no Saint and neither is Brett even if they keep talking about him as the second coming. The only explanation for me is, that they know how guilty Trump is and they are saving their own skins. They unlike the rest of us, have seen the reports on Russian hacking, and all the juicy rumor filled Intel that only they are privy too. They know the truth, yet never act on it. All they do is attack whistle blowers and people who apparently are telling the truth. And God forbid you are a woman who comes out to report and relive what ever horrible experience that your accused has possibly done. Oh, and if you ask why it takes people so long to come out, just watch a tape of the kavanaugh hearings, all questions will be answered. Seems, the crimes they faced might not be as bad as having to deal with a bunch of old white republican women hating inbreds who attack you for the audacity of telling your story, of being a victim. And whats worse, the trolls, bots and minions of these fools, who attack them on social networks and worse real life. Let me ask you, would be as brave as Christine Blasey Ford? Would you be willing to have your life destroyed to relive the worse experience, that in many cases they have tried to suppress for decades, just to do the right thing? I’m not sure if I could.  

Of course the Republicans have also looked at the polls and know more than us how badly their party is doing. Which explains their election campaigns this year. Have you seen anything more disgusting, racist and full of lies? I mean, according to their campaign rhetoric, they are trying to save pre-existing conditions, WTF? That the Democrats are the ones being mob-like, have they not seen the footage? Oh, I get it, just lie outta your asses, rinse, repeat and magically reality will disappear and once more the minority party will defeat the majority with less votes. Explains all the work on their part to stop Americans from getting to the voting booth. Why so afraid of the voters? Maybe because they have seen the numbers, they know the people are pissed. We were pissed on election day when Trump somehow was given the title, even though we the people had voted for someone else. We’ve been pissed each time he’s taken our nation one step closer to end times. And now some if not most of us are pissed with how they treated yet another woman, and allowed what could be a worthless womanizing drunk a seat at the table for possibly the next 40 or 50 years. Of course if the Democrats do get the majority, Kavanaugh could be impeached himself for his lies, his perjury on the stand, and his past indiscretions when he’s had one too many. Or of course, if Trump does become our first dictator in orange, officially, who knows in a few years, a Supreme Court, may also be a thing of the past, just like our democracy.  

Otherwise why rush someone in that has come out to be the only human on Earth who believes a President can not be investigated, or impeached. Of course, they know that if the Democrats actually do get in, they know that they will also be investigated for their crimes. Their treasonous actions, aiding a traitor. Their willful stoppage of any investigation into anything bad that Trump or one of his cabinet members have done. For doing their best to halt and stop any investigation into election hacking, Trump’s foundation, Trump’s family businesses, and Trump’s taxes. How many of them will be found culpable of the same crimes? How many of them are in bed with Russians, too?  Sorry, all of this can not simply be about greed, its about power and everything thats un-American.

If they can investigate and possibly remove Trump, how in any logical mind set, should Donald be allowed to choose another Supreme Court judge? Let the people decide. Of course as we’ve discovered in so many in your face, screw the people moments during this election campaign, the Republicans aren’t running on what they or Trump did, no pride in that. No, they are running a campaign of lies and attacks, trying to smear the Democrats into transforming into the enemy of the people that he’s smeared the press since his campaign for the White House began. 

Really is it all about the Supreme Court? Seems with the Kavanaugh swearing in, every heinous act, tweet, insult and lie, are all forgotten in a flash because they the monsters in the Republican party got Brett in? Everything? How does almost two years of a really bad horror show get forgotten simply because Republicans rammed through his Supreme Court savior? How is it possible that everything people have bitched about not matter in the slightest? Perhaps its just for ratings and trying to get the audience riled up for the big election to come, but the poll numbers out of left field appear to be creeping over to the red side. They got that post kavanaugh bump the Republicans were so praying for, or is that preying on? At least thats how the media is trying to pitch these last few weeks before Democracy’s possible last stand. How much of a hold on people does the liar in chief and Fox faux news really have? The ratings on his reelection stomp events are beginning to lose their luster and hysterically even Fox has stopped airing them. But they still are all Trump all the time, and during the Kavanaugh hearings, the publicity ring of Donald’s perpetual reelection campaign beat every other political channel, you know the real news stations, in the ratings by a mile.

I like so many others out there are still trying to get a handle on what happened last election, and why Hillary Clinton isn’t our President and man I am so sorry I was so right about Trump and man that really sucks. Suffering through one of the worse nights of my life, that election night, I can not remember a time politically when I was so upset, sad, disillusioned and horrified. How could this happen? How could so many people be so wrong? But living through the Kavanaugh hearings, watching the Republicans enshrine for ‘life’ Trump’s savior was in lots of ways worse. Really worse, because Trump just becoming president, we thought that at least it couldn’t be as bad as some feared. But as we’ve learned, yes it could, and with Kavanaugh now in, those fears have been multiplied by the realization that the Republicans have given Trump the opportunity to transform himself from simply our Commander-in-Chief into a possible King of the World. Which was why I needed to wait out the eventual outcome before expressing my feelings on the matter. I am sick of all the predictions by all the talking heads. Why? Just report the news. Quit filling the airwaves with opinions and what could be’s, that the job of bloggers and op-ed writers, not television reporters. I would think after the last election that got us Trump, that would have given the predictors pause. But no, every day, they’re back on our televisions, expressing their opinions, and all I feel like is I’m wasting my time from whats really happening. Except like watching road kill, I sometimes can’t turn away. Perhaps 24/7 news actually does have its drawbacks? Too much time to fill, especially when there is nothing new to report. But when there is something breaking, its better than any good mystery on television.   

When it was announced who Trump chose to save his bacon, end abortion, and install himself in as perennial King of the world, I decided that no matter what occurred, good or bad, I had to have closure on it, before I wrote my feelings on the proceedings and what were the ramifications from it. Of course while I waited for the Kavanaugh hearings to end to spill my guts about it, there were several times when the shocking revelations had me pulling out what’s left of my hair. I so wanted to jot down stuff, but because I knew that the next day, this plot twist of Trump’s insane evil plan to take over the world, which scarily showcased everything that makes you want to punch in a wall, if not cry yourself to sleep when it comes to politics, would go off on another tangent, I had to force myself to wait. Sadly I was right. As the story continued, my blood began to boil as the daily shifts in plot played out and as we watched what almost looked like both a slap in the faces of women everywhere, as well as the republicans spitting on our American flag. Each day of this torturous ever changing outcome bombarding us with what should have been a foregone conclusion, that no matter what came out, Trump would get his savior in. Even after Brett was sworn in, not once but twice, the second for the cameras, it took me several days to try to make sense of what we just lived though. How do the bad guys keep winning? When do the people rise up and say no more? Please let it be this election. Please, please. And that means Democrats and even Republicans, come out and vote like our futures depend on it because it does. I am still trying to take it all in. Still not believing how it all panned out. How the liars on the right enshrined not only a possible womanizing, molesting black out drunk who apparently has no memory of even taking a sip, and no I am not talking about Donald J. Trump right now.

I should mention, that I actually began writing this over 3 weeks ago, as our nation was preparing for that weeks major storm from Mother Nature. Seems we as a species has been very bad and she’s pissed human’s are destroying her home. Or perhaps its God’s wraith against the evil that Donald Trump and his ilk are doing since he took control of our world. Remember the good old days, when something insane occurred and we as a society sometimes had weeks or months to contemplate what just happened? We are currently living through a time when it feels like we are being pummeled on an hourly basis. I must also say that since Trump somehow got in, I’ve never been more depressed in my life about America and our future, but living through Kavanaugh’s unbelievably obnoxious and unethical hearing run by a pack of lying douchebag Republicans who have in many cases somehow have been in power for decades, has gotten me more angry about the insanity we are living through than I’ve ever been in my entire life. Seriously.

We are watching a political party bend over backwards, while somersaulting on pogo sticks during a hurricane, while bowing down to its orange dyed mentally unbalanced leader, as if they are working for him or a foreign entity, and not the America people. Its been 27 years since we had to deal with another Supreme Court battle like the one we just suffered through, and power has totally corrupted the majority Republicans. Sadly it’s possibly gotten worse since Anita Hill had to tell us about that disgusting Coke can. Now we have our beloved social networks to multiple that hate by millions, and I would think that by now, as a nation, the way we dealt with Brett’s accusations and his accusers would have been handled shall we say a bit differently. Especially in the #metoo age. But perhaps thats exactly why the old white fools performed the way they did. They had to send a message. All I can write is, lets hope that message that the media is claiming is gonna stop the blue wave from drowning the republicans, is as much a lie as every other thing they spew. This time, so matter how much they try to suppress the vote, so many people vote, that the share numbers will wash away the Republican majority, and any illegal actions they try, and Democracy will begin righting all the wrongs that have recently been written.

The trumpeting Republicans has completely fallen under the whims of our current president and will do everything in their power to skirt the rules, rush through without investigating evidence or witnesses, and skip all precedent, forgive or completely act dumb about all lies their people spew, to get anything they want through. If the Democrats lose in November the nation currently known as The United States of America is surely on borrowed time. That is definitely a forgone conclusion if the American people decide to sit out this November’s election and Trump gets to go down as America’s last president, and first king, or is that emperor? But history could be righted just a little, perhaps a lot, if the majority electorate actually gets out and votes as many of these lying traitors out. Of course in places like Georgia, we’ve discovered, that even with the masses wanting a Democrat in, its possible the current Republican in charge has cheated in such a way that just like with Hillary, the winner of the popular vote may not become the victor in the election come this November. Point blank, Uncle Sam really needs you to vote. And vote like your life depends on it, because it probably does. The democrats need to vote so overwhelmingly that nothing the Republicans do to steal people’s constitutional rights will be enough to overthrow the people’s wishes. I have to write this, and I mean this with all my heart and soul, anyone who doesn’t cast a vote this year as if our very Democracy depends on it, or worse, doesn’t vote at all in protest to make a statement, should all join the Communist Party, and ponder giving up their United States citizenships. 

So a few weeks back, Hurricane Florance was about to attack… okay, I know some of you might have already forgotten that week’s disaster, just a hint, remember the tropical storm that hit Florida, North Carolina, Puerto Rico, Bahamas, South Carolina, to just begin to name some of the places that were effected. I’ll just presume some of you remember, I know 3 weeks right now is like a lifetime, but just go with it… as our nation hunkered down for that latest monstrous hurricane, that yet again the climate deniers refused to believe wasn’t at least partially caused by man’s self destruction and greed. Ironically these same people believe charlatans who claim the horrific once in a generation storms which are occurring on an ever quickening pace, are caused by the Gays, abortion, equal rights, the Democrats, the Jews, the libtards who spewed their lies about Kavanaugh and any deviant who dares disagree with their rules. But global warming, oh thats simply a made up scam concocted by fools who rather listen to what an orange faced liar recites off of a TelePrompTer during a reelection stomp speech, than to scientists and people with knowledge and experience who have spent their entire careers researching and reporting the facts. 

Now about that Supreme Court hearing, as the evidence mounted or should I write as his yearbook revealed, it became crystal clear why the Republicans rushed the Kavanaugh hearings through. Seems the Boy Scout out of “central casting” as Donald described him, turned out to be a man with lots of hidden demons. So many in fact that the Republicans pretty much broke all the rules and hid millions of documents, especially those while he worked in the George Walker Bush White House. Which included torturing prisoners of war, former Vice President from Hell Dick Cheney’s favorite past time. Something that the Democrats kept trying to bring up which the Republicans kept trying to change the subject. Brett’s perjury in those matters didn’t seem to bother a single Republican, they just kept spewing the line that he was already vetted 6 times in his career, so why the sudden interest in his past, probably just political excuses by the Democrats to slow down the process. I mean that was so 35 years ago, why torment the great white hope by actually showcasing the monster behind the curtain? Seems, if you’re a Republican, you can lie when you testify. Apparently perjury is no longer a crime when you have the majority. Maybe America is already dead and the people just haven’t been informed, perhaps the powers that be are playing with us and are simply waiting til after Election day to let the citizens of the United States in on that bit of news.

Throughout the Kavanaugh hearings, the way too brief investigation which at first seemed like a life line for our Democracy, but sadly showcased too swiftly that it was simply just a sham, caused by Senator Flake’s supposed concern at what, in his own words, could destroy the very fabric of our nation. The Democrats did their best to try to take Brett down, but the trumpeting Republicans in power who seem to all be racist old white men who haven’t a clue about the female body, apparently believe that women were just created from a rib of a man and that they are the property of men. Sadly as we’ve discovered most of the woman in Republican politics also believe that bull too. That would explain some of their rhetoric which sounds like religious zealots when discussing women and politics. Of course they believe they know best, screw science, medicine, common sense or reality. Ignorance can be bliss if you just close your mind and simply fall in line, and are the majority, even if you didn’t acquire the majority vote.

So we suffered through the hearings, we witnessed a woman being grilled by another woman instead of the white old lying grumpy males, while the Democrats tried treating her like a human being, who showcased a reasonable and believable tale of horror, and how it had effected her life since that horrible experience occurred. We then watched a very arrogant, angry and pompous white male acting like he was born to be a judge on the Supreme Court and how dare anyone showcase his truth. He cried, whined and acted like a baby, like a man scorned, certainly not like a man who showcased at all, the qualities of someone who should be even mentioned in the same breath as the Supreme Court. This is a man who spent a lifetime doing evil work for the Republicans. Some have called him the Forrest Gump of Washington politics, because for the last 40 years or so he has been involved in some way or another with aiding the Republican agenda. From working for Ken Starr on the Bill Clinton Impeachment hearings, to assisting George Walker Bush during his battle against Vice President AL Gore during the recount, to then assisting George Walker Bush the former worst president in history with his torturous crimes, by perjuring himself when applying for his previous job in the courts. 

Every time new evidence came out, mostly outside the halls of Washington, that should have been looked into by the FBI or whomever was investigating the truth, which could have been brought into the next round of hearings, that is if we had them, was instead brushed aside by the majority as nonsense. But we will never know as long as the Republicans have the majority what they did and what they didn’t investigate. The good news in all this, that is if you can get any out of the horrors of Brett as a now sitting Supreme Court judge, the Democrats have promised that if they get the majority in November they will investigate this and pretty much everything that has occurred since Donny put his hand on that bible and got sworn in. 

We’ve have been told by the media talking heads that just 4 people were talked to during that way-too brief investigation. Instead of the week long investigation that the people were promised, we got a half week including the weekend question and answer session. We got pretty much a bogus attempt at wasting a few days times to quiet down the protests, instead of a real investigation into what actually happened. So even though, for several days, before during and afterwards we got an onslaught of reports of people from their high school and college years coming out, not one of those apparently mattered to Trump or his minions in the Senate. I honestly felt for a few days that here was a chance Brett might be stopped, because news reports seemed to showcase that yes, she was telling the truth, and that he was a sloppy drinker who couldn’t keep his hands to himself. I mean the elections were coming up in just a matter of a few weeks, shouldn’t the Republicans want to at least look like they were tying to get the woman’s vote? I mean with the numbers that kept growing every day, it seemed that it was inevitable that Trump would lose this one. But of course he didn’t. And Brett, we discovered turned into Mister Hyde and it worked. Seems in his days long preparation for his hearing, Kavanaugh was told to act like Donald, to act like a prick and the way things are now-a-days, it worked like a charm. That pathetic display which made most people come out and say Brett didn’t have the disposition to be a sitting judge on the Supreme Court let alone in his current position, actually was the thing that put him over the top. The man who initially had been described as a saint who never drank, swore or possibly defecated in his life, by the Trumpeting Republicans who jammed him through, were hiding all of Brett’s inner demons that they could.  

I am exhausted by what we’ve lived through the last few years and the fact that all our lives seem to be the plaything of a tyrannical monster right out of some dystopian nightmare written by a very angry mentally challenged author. Perhaps ‘we’ as a collective nation deserve what we are getting. Didn’t we recently go to war by attacking the wrong nation? You know the one George Walker Bush got us into and the one apparently we’re never ever getting out of again. George Walker might never pay a price for all the millions of people who died, all the lives he destroyed, and how pathetic he was as our President. We know Cheney surely hasn’t. Look at what ‘we’ did to that country under their watch. The destruction we caused. I understand they weren’t angels, but they didn’t attack us that day, other people did. Sadly when the Democrats were back in power they were too busy trying to right the ship Titanic that the Republicans had turned America into to go after the monsters that caused the crash into the iceberg in the first place. So instead of taking to task the horrors that they did, the now new majority tried to fix the nation, which gave the monsters on the right the chance to try to tear apart President Barack Obama and the Democrats, and way too swiftly regain the majority they so justly deserved to lose. Unfortunately for the good of the nation, the Democrats always try to do the right thing. Somehow no matter how horrible or obscene the Republicans get, when it comes to campaigning, they know how to get the people to listen to their lies and to magically forget everything they’ve actually done. Somehow, the lies they spew, the insults, the conspiracies, the racist garbage takes over the air waives, and the real facts and the real records get thrown out. Scarily the only time Donald J. Trump actually ever told the truth, was during that infamous debate, when he went off on Bush and expressed what a shit show it was. Remember how everyone booed him. How this was gonna end his campaign. It was the first time I believed he had a chance to win. I can still remember getting the chills at the thought. How petrified I was at what those ramifications meant.

The worse part about the whole kavanaugh debacle was, the final vote was 50-48 and it turned out as usual to be a political straight line party vote. Most in the Republican party in the Senate looked at the facts or the ramifications, they just voted along with their buddies. So 49 of the Republicans who voted ‘Yes’ disregarded everything shady about the nominee, and 47 Democrats looked at the facts, considered what it could mean for Brett to be sworn in and what those consequences were and voted ‘no’. Even if you didn’t believe the accusations, Brett’s demeanor should have turned you into a ‘no’ , but not one republican even wanted to discuss his many lies, or his previous convictable perjuries when questioned in the past. Not even Jeff Flake, who became a hero to millions of Americans for a few days. That is til the truth of what the bogus hearings really transformed into. Perhaps, Jeff himself was in on the charade, to cover himself for his presumed run for the presidency, or more likely, his television gig on one of the political networks, as soon as he exits his office. 

But even with those votes out of the way, there was still hope. All we needed was Republicans Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins and one Democrat, at least in party affiliation, Joe Manchin, to vote with the Democratic party line and Brett would be toast. All we needed was these 3 to vote against, and Kavanaugh would’ve been forgotten in history, as opposed to being possibly remembered in the future as the man who helped enshrine Donald J. Trump as Emperor, first ruler of Trumpland. For a few hours it got tense on Capital Hill, when Lisa Murkowski voted ‘no’. She simply said, that it was too much of a rush and not a thorough enough investigation to vote him in for a lifetime appointment. But sadly all hope faded pretty quickly, once Jeff Flake announced that even though he wasn’t happy with the 3 day query, or should I write joke, that  he announced screw it, he was voting for Brett because there was no corroborating evidence. Which was when I screamed at my television that the fix was in. How could their be any, they never investigated the witnesses or the evidence, nothing that kept coming out. They hid in a room regurgitated what they already had, and figured out the spin they would say to get past this minor inconvenience that they had to all go through, in order to get Donny’s baby in. They didn’t really investigate, you two faced liar. You of all people, Jeff Flake know that. Remember you were on the committee which got to see the reports from the investigators. This, ‘no corroborating evidence’, turned out to be the go to phrase by anyone who was on Trump’s side. I mean how could there be any answers when they didn’t investigate the people who claimed they had things to share? 

Unfortunately, I wasn’t shocked when Joe Manchin announced he was voting yes, I mean, doesn’t he always vote as a Republican to save his job as opposed to do his job? Happily to report, according to polls in his area, his voting ‘yes’ for Brett, might actually lose him his seat of power. One can only hope, Republican or Democrat, that his replacement isn’t any worse. The final nail in America’s coffin however was driven in by what turned out to be the biggest lying douche bag in Washington, whose on a par with Mitch McConnell, Ted Cruz, and Paul Ryan. Susan Collins of all people, who has spent her career promising to her constituents that she would never vote in anyone who would vote out Roe V. Wade, repeatedly lied through her teeth when she said that she would wait to see the evidence and listen to the witnesses. At the same time refusing to meet any of the citizens who wanted to let her know how they felt. These woman and men who had wanted to share their horrifying stories of abuse. Seem’s when Brett told her that a woman’s right to an abortion was the law of the land and that he would never touch it, she believed his lies. Why? She knew what Trump had promised. She knew who had suggested him in the first place, and what their agenda was. 

So sadly when she had the chance to do what the late John McCain had done last year, when he thumbed down the bill to kill Obamacare for the people and not just to fall in line with the rest of her party. Collins instead announced ahead of time as if she was about to repeat McCain’s historic move, she then came out to an audience of millions and wasted 40 minutes of every body’s time explaining why she would be voting yes. Susan Collins decided to go against everything she had pitched for years. Seems she’s just like the rest of the monsters on the right, who didn’t care about women or their rights. I always had a bad feeling about her, but like others who believed her charade, Collins appeared to be a voice of reason. One of the moderates as they like to call them. But at the most important point in her career, the vote that will put her name into the history books, she outed herself as just another lying Republican who only cares abut her own pocketbook. Instead of proving her word, she announced she was gonna vote ‘yes’ to Trump’s choice. Sadly nowhere in anything she spewed that day, brought up his perjury when it came to Bush’s torture, or his many lies about his yearbook and what he and his disgusting teenaged friends had put into that historical document, which proved what a POS he and they were. Susan Collins like the rest of the Republicans never brought up the fact that Trump was getting a man who announced a President  can’t be impeached! They actually went out of their way to not bring that up. Or that he was chosen by a religious white-wing organization, who wanted to bring religion to the classroom and the white house. Who apparently are okay with destroying our democracy as long as they can have as many guns as they like and can continue transforming our nation into what hellhole they have conceived of as their heaven. So the gas lighting of America has worked its magic once more. Brett Kavanaugh is now a sitting Supreme Court judge, till he retires or we as a nation goes buh bye. And if the talking heads on television are right, the way Brett got him, by acting like a POS, that it has helped rile up the sheep on the right. Somehow this Trump victory, has caused every fowl disgusting racist comment to be forgotten that Trump or his minions have spewed and what just occurred during Brett’s enshrinement proceedings never occurred. 

Well screw that, I’ve personally had it. I’m voting straight party line for the Democrats. Not that that is really a change from every other election I’ve participated in. But this year, there’s one big exception. I’m actually working at a polling station on election day. Nice way to earn a few bucks, by helping other citizens when they arrive to do their patriotic duty. I must tell you, after going through the training session, which is a requirement, my admiration for those who have done this job in the past has grown enormously. Lets just say, it ain’t as simple as it looks. And that doesn’t even mention the responsibility I feel and the excitement I felt when I received the e-mail explaining to me that I had passed the test. Yes, there was a test, and I passed and I get to work on election day. Yeah me, yeah Democracy. I honestly wanted to see Democracy working for its citizens with my own eyes, from another angle. I mean, scarily this maybe the last time an American will be able to vote. Yes, I believe that. I must add once more with a caveat, that anyone who doesn’t vote this year as if our Democracy depends on it, is as delusional as Donald J. Trump. They say this each Election year, but I honestly do believe that this election is the most important in our lifetimes, just as the last one had been. Trump proved why it is important to take your vote seriously. And how important it is to have the right person in the job. What can one man do? Unfortunately way too much damage. This upcoming election proves that even the midterms are important, and hopefully will cause people to come out by the millions as never before to make a statement. And according to what I’ve been seeing, the numbers so far in early voting, are through the roof. Of course we don’t know as of yet who those votes are for. But my feeling is, perhaps that Blue Tsunami I’ve been praying for is happening even as we speak. If we can all just somehow drown out the lies and magical thinking that the republicans are trying to weave over all of us. As they attempt to make us forget what has actually happened and what we know to be true. I’m hoping by early Election eve the realization of what might just be happening will cause Trump to start packing his bags. Once he realizes its over, what with Mueller they say about readying for his big announcement in February, Donald’s probably gonna start making plans for lots of plastic surgery, for his years on the lam. While he tries to evade capture and his eventual life on death row, as he awaits his well deserved ending.  

That is if the people vote, and don’t all turn out to be the sheep who all believe the lies they learn from Russian bots and the fools that share the conspiracies as truth. That is if the people start seeing everything that Trump spews as lies, as opposed to the most obvious ones which people throw away as supposed bad jokes. I’m hoping that the amazing Woman’s march that took place right after Trump was announced president was more than just a statement. As well as all the other protests that have sprung up since that have made America sometimes feel like we are back in the protest glory days of the 1960’s during the Viet Nam war. I’m hoping everyone out there who voted for Hillary or Bernie or even Jill Stein, comes out in droves to prove that their votes mattered and were robbed by Russia interference. I’m hoping that at least enough of the fools who got suckered into voting for Trump and his minions last time, have woken up and are pissed at the monsters who told them the lies, who got them to swallow everything. Maybe through guilt or common sense, or even a sense of patriotism, lets hope they all vote out everyone of these Republicans traitors and charlatans who had turned them into the sheep they became. How could these people that we voted in do that to us? How could they tell us lies and go along with Trump as they did when they know he was lying? And now we are culpable in their crimes, by way of atonement, maybe the former fans of Donald  will now vote the monsters out. So you think your vote doesn’t matter? How you’re making a statement, or a protest vote, is a good idea when the possibility of the end of Democracy actually can come true? And are you still justifying it by saying you would do the same thing again, even after what we’ve lived through...well shame on you. Enjoy whatever Hell you wind up in. I just hope there are enough real American’s out there, and somehow that in the end, everything works out. Otherwise, its been run living in America, what was once the greatest nation on Earth, but sadly was destroyed by fools on the inside who allowed wolves from other nations to destroy it. Lets hope those wolves die off quickly and returns to the place we all loved just a few short years a go.

MUELLER'S HUNT GETS REAL, AS 2 OF TRUMP’S WITCHES GET BURNED, WHILE 2 OTHERS ARE GRANTED IMMUNITY

As Donald systematically removes “the best people” in power that could hurt him, while the Republicans do their best to protect him, several of Trump’s very best are demonstrating how his very own choices could actually end him

“I WAS DIRECTED TO…" words that will be remembered for years to come. Four words which could start the ball rolling in removing our sitting President from a chair he never rightfully should have ever sat in. Especially if the new revelations we learned this past week turn out to be real and not the words of a man who’s pleading to not spend the rest of his life in prison, turns out the be what actually occurred. I was gonna call this piece, Michael Cohen the gift that keeps on giving, cause come on, look what this sleaze bag has come to. First coming out with audio tapes and now pleading to eight counts, two of which totally screws over DJT by implicating the orange faced liar in the crimes that Michael Cohen admitted he did for Donald. If anyone deserves his comeuppance, this fixer does. Am I the only one out there who remembers the hateful tweets the now admitted felon spewed. So Hillary was gonna get what she deserves? Really Michael? Perhaps with your new honestly she still might, by being sworn in as the 46th President of these United States. Listening to the news people, and his so-called friends on air describe his demeanor in court and how he’s feeling behind the scenes, was striking. As they try to humanize the man without disregarding what he did for over a decade. I’m sorry, I honestly don’t care how the man feels. I only care about his crimes. I only care how he helped place Donald into the seat of power illegally.

That said, I have to say, thank you Michael Cohen for actually doing the right thing, as your lawyer Lanny Davis said you would, whatever your motivations are. Apparently you’ve seen the light and you’ve seen the error of your ways. Of course Michael also realizes that if he doesn’t speak up he would probably take the brunt of Donald’s wrong doings and be spending a lot more time in federal prison then whatever his final deal comes out to be. According to most of the talking heads on CNN and MSNBC, and even one or two on FOX, Michael Cohen explanation in court, in regards to Trump’s knowledge and involvement with the paying off the two lovely ladies during the campaign has turned our 45th President into an alleged co-conspirator. In a moment reminiscent of John Dean’s implicating Richard Nixon, which was the beginning of the end of that President, this bombshell announcement could be the beginning of the end of our current one. Regardless of what you think about his politics, if you do the crime… sorry you don’t get rewarded with running the United States of America.

Apparently paying off ladies, using illegal means, including campaign funds or private funds, without disclosing it in your taxes, to hide bad deeds ain’t kosher, be it personal or business, and especially when it comes to a political office like the presidency. Sadly for Trump pay offs aren’t legal, especially when you try to hush them up. Heck, it ain’t collusion, but in a pinch it’ll work. Lets never forget, they didn’t get Al Capone for his murderous crimes, but they got him for his taxes. While there might not be proven collusion yet with Russia, which I guess will have to wait, since Mueller hasn’t started making any announcements on that matter, but we have a sitting President who’s Presidency is now tainted with real possible crimes. With the knowledge that Trump’s former personal attorney Michael Cohen swore under oath that  he was instructed by the now President to pay off two different ladies to keep quiet about their affairs or one night stands, or however you want to call his behind the scenes moments with them.

If that wasn’t a big enough demon to slay, our justice department, the one that Donald keeps insulting as a band of monstrous witch hunters, just got an even bigger monster. While not the slam dunk that Michael Cohen’s apparently is, Trump’s former campaign chief Paul Manafort’s conviction on eight counts out of the 18 is pretty much another nail into Trump’s proverbial coffin. Of note, it was just announced that the 10 counts he wasn’t convicted on, all could have been convictions. Seems 1 person in the jury box refused to go along with the evidence. So yes, Paul Manafort was convicted on 8 counts, 8,  and according to his attorney he is now deciding on his future. Which means we don’t know if Manafort will appeal his convictions, or if the prosecutor will go after him and retry him on the other ten counts that this jury couldn’t come to 12-0 decision. Or perhaps as the other basket of deplorables one by one give up the ghost, Manafort might go maybe its time I should too, before its really too late. Or his easiest out, on these convictions, if Donald will swoop down and save him from his life in the gallows by pardoning him. And the best part in all of this, in September, the now convicted felon, has an entirely different trial waiting to begin. 

I can only imagine what the should be President, Hillary Rodham Clinton must be thinking. That is if she’s even giving any of this notice. I won’t even fantasize that some time in the near future she comes out and pretty much announces ‘hey fellas’ my crown was stolen illegally. See, I warned all of you. So don’t you think the rightful winner of the election should get the seat at the table that Donald and his henchmen stole from her?’ I would love it if she did do that, as Trump and all of his treasonous basket of deplorable’s are banished from the Kingdom. Or how the entire Republican party must be thinking behind the scenes, because in front nothing has seemingly happened. Its still unbelievably a real witch hunt by the Republicans on Hillary, and no I am not kidding. Thats right the same week all of this really bad news has come out about Trump, instead of opening up an investigation into if what Michael Cohen said about Donald is true, they are actually holding a hearing about Hillary again.

‘And remember Democrats, no talking about Impeachment?!?!?!’ Its maddening, according to the talking heads on air, the Democrats are supposedly in a tight position, but since its the Republicans who have basically sold themselves down the river on the back of Trump’s coat tails, shouldn’t that be the opposite? No according to the geniuses, they can’t bring up the word impeachment because history says that’s a losing gamble. You see when it happened to Bill Clinton the voters slammed the breaks on that in the polls and scared off the politicians from going on to removing President Clinton. So if they pitch impeachment the next election trying to win back the House, the voters according to them, will erupt in anger and vote back in the Republicans and Democracy as we know it would be going the way of the dodo bird. I noticed several of the Republican talking heads pitching this, at the voters, see the evil Democrats want to remove our President over fake news, lets watch them a lesson and vote the republicans back in. But they also say, if the Democrats play it cool and simply wait for Mueller’s announcement, ‘just wait’, the waiting for the drip, drip, drip, to have its probable effect on the masses, they say it looks like the Democrats could win it in a huge blue wave. 

Point blank, I don’t agree with their logic and spin. There is a big difference between what Bill Clinton did and what Donald Trump did and is doing. Clinton lied, yes thats perjury, yes, but to cover up an affair, or however you will like to describe it. While yes, this has to do with, OMG another scandal with women, Trump committed campaign finance crimes and probably treason covering up his misdeeds and cheating ways. I’m sorry that is a big difference.  And remember the masses, the majority of this nation loved Bill Clinton. I can’t say the same about Donald Trump, if you wanna go by poll numbers, Donald is on borrowed time.

So we’ve gone from Kellyanne Conway’s ‘Alternative Facts’ to Donald Trump’s way too Orwellian “What you’re seeing and what you’re reading is not what’s happening.” To Rudy Giuliani’s latest legal defense “Truth isn’t truth.” Without a doubt, I’m expecting Trump to go full Richard Nixon and tweet out “I’m not a crook, Hillary is, Obama is, I’m well Donald Trump, God’s gift to the world!” After all, he’s now actually calling John Dean a rat, not because Dean was in on the crimes, but because he testified against Nixon. What gets me with Trump and seemingly the entire Republican party, the crimes themselves never seems to matter. The people who discover the crimes, the investigators, the reporters, the court of law, are the rats. The flippers as Donald was way to happy to repeat during his FOX interview as if he was on a loop. Apparently in Trumpland the good guys are the criminals who don’t flip or rat out their associates, not the ones that keep their mouths shut and take the fall. The criminals are the victims, simply because they got caught, not because of their illegal actions.  

Now I must mention that before Thursdays bombshells exploded in the faces of the Republicans who sold their souls and dignities for a seat at the Pumpkin’s table, this commentary was gonna be all about another former member Donald’s inner circle from Hell. A woman named Omarosa and how her pitch to peddle some books, or should I write millions of books, might have turned a pariah for siding with an obviously poster boy for racist every where, into the vessel that would cause Trump to step down. So all I want to write about her is good work Omarosa. For once I’m loving the drip, drip, drip, and I’m much more preferring this to the Wikileaks nonstop dribble that helped elect... or should I write helped hurt Hillary Clinton enough to turn the election results and our world upside down. I guess it makes sense, or is that karma that a person who got famous for being a bitch on reality television or at least was pitched as one, might be the bearer of poisoned fruit that takes down the monster that helped create her. If Donald John Trump is the Doctor Frankenstein in this real world horror show, Omarosa has got to be one of his most diabolical creations. Don’t you love it when the baddie gets destroyed by one of his own making? Seriously, she was cast by Trump to be pretty much the token person of color in his administration. But before we all go all lovey dovey over her and her now leaking of audios and videos, always remember when she started working for the Trump White House, she once, announced or should I write threatened a warning that we all would bow down to the Donald, or we would all suffer the consequences. That said, since she started proving what she wrote in her ‘Unhinged’ book was factorial, by releasing audio tapes of the conversations discussed in the book, which up until minutes before the other people on the tape claimed that those conversations never took place are proven liars to their faces. Helping to out even more liars and traitors in our midst. 

The worse part of this entire ordeal is the fact that the most important person in the entire investigation into Trump’s possible crimes, has pretty much kept his mouth shut. Which has allowed people on Trump’s side, to pitch a non-stop lie attacking the investigation and those doing the investigations. See no collusion, if they had something by now, they would have said something. Its all a hoax. Shut it down! Seriously, its been maddening, as the voters out there, seemingly were believing the lies, and the supposedly polls showcased the people believe their lies and misdirections. But as we’ve discovered, whats occurring behind the scenes, when it comes out surely is the best way to shut down the fools on the hill, lying to save themselves and their windfall.

And as has been the case, Robert Mueller’s only response has been, what happened this past week, Manafort and Cohen went down. Seems investigating actually finds crimes and the criminals who did them. And the best part in all of this, Robert Mueller is too smart to give Donny any edge. These legal decisions, their victories against criminal running our government, really have nothing to do with him, but with other legal court of laws that Mueller has dealt them out to. The smartness in this is, now the people can’t say its just Mueller who of course is one of the 17 evil democrats trying in the worse possible manner to steal Trump’s presidency. Plus, if the cases are under other court of laws other districts, Donald might not be able to shut down the flippers with the gift of a pardon. Donald you are toast, the king has no clothes. All the lies are being proven false. The truth, or as you call it the fake news, is coming from you and your henchmen and you are all going down. 

Amazing just a few days ago, Omarosa was the big story of the week, with all her talk about hearing Donald say the ‘N’ word and of course the audio tapes. But now it seems Mueller’s work is coming to fruition. In addition to the two felons that both are awaiting their sentences, an even scarier list of people have emerged against him. To cap off a very bad few days for Donald, and hopefully the week when we can all say this was when the wheels finally actually fell off. Besides the convictions of Cohen and Manafort to showcase what a great job these investigators are doing, we now have learned that two of Trump’s closest advisors, business associates and friends were giving immunity in the Cohen probe. These two more than the felons just convicted could spell greater doom for Donald and his entire criminal enterprise, not to mention his presidency. 

The first of the two, of course made the biggest splash, David Pecker of National Enquirer fame, because of all the dirt he must have on Donald, and the obvious role the tabloid newspaper had in destroying Hillary’s reputation and helping to pump up Donald’s candidacy. David Pecker, the chairman of American Media Inc., which owns the National Enquirer, has been granted immunity by federal prosecutors. Which pretty much means they had him for campaign finance crimes and he was probably looking at years behind bars too, if found guilty. I presume he got the deal to explain why he never published the interviews in The National Enquirer in whats called a catch and kill scheme, which is when a publisher buys a story and kills it instead of publishing it. In this case, this catch and kill was used to kill a story that could have possibly ended Donald’s campaign. With that as a wedge, apparently every misdeed and vile crime that Donald has done is now a possibility of getting uncovered, especially with the explosive information that David Pecker, supposedly had a safe at AMI, which had all the smack on Donald, that David Pecker catched and killed. One can only imagine what was in it, possibly stuff on Donald getting urinated  on during his romps with his hired ladies? Why this matters, according to Associated Press, Trump and Michael Cohen, coordinated the cover stories with David Pecker that were published in the National Enquirer. All the conspiracies against Hillary like pizza-gate, her supposed crimes, her health scares, all the God-awful imagery of her looking like death, a zombie, or worse. Everything that you now hear from the followers of Donald who when you ask, why you voted against Hillary or worse why you hate Hillary, are all unbelievably the cover story’s on assorted National Enquirer cover, that we now discover were in cahoots with Trump’s campaign. Which of course were coordinated with the so-called news coverage on Fox News. Remember The National Enquirer was the only publisher in America that endorsed Trump for President. Sorry that’s a lie, Jared’s New York Observer also did, but thats another story, for another time. 

I must mention here, as they say for full disclosure, I have worked at American Media from time to time over the last decade or so. I should also add that by writing this, it could possibly cost me not to be hired by them again. One never knows. I’ll presume what I write won’t hurt me, but if it does so be it. Better to be totally up front then to forget to mention something that later could be used against me. See he’s a liar too, not us. WITCH HUNT! Anyway, usually when I work at AMI, I work as a freelance production artist, to help get their celebrity related magazines out to the press on time. The three I have worked on for the last several years are the Star, OK! Weekly, and US Weekly. And yes I have seen the company’s chairman David Pecker usually walking swiftly, looking very important and way too busy for anyone to imagine. But I haven’t spoken to the man in decades, and never once at AMI. You see years before I first worked at AMI, I used to work at Hachette Filipacchi, another magazine publisher here in New York City, and yes, as it just so happens at the time David Pecker was then running that company. It was there during my tenure as the art director of circulation and promotion at HFM, that I got the chance to work on the launch of John Kennedy Jr.’s George magazine in 1994 and 1995, thats a story in itself and Hollywood, yes I am waiting for the call, which was when I finally got the chance to meet David Pecker and work directly with him for a very short period of time. During our meetings, I always found him to be a no nonsense commanding straight shooter who knew exactly what he wanted and definitely was the perfect casting for the head of a huge corporation. I honestly have nothing bad to say about the man, at least as far as I know from my personal meetings with him. But since then, even though I have worked off and on at AMI for over a decade, I’ve never once spoken to him since I entered its doors. The few times we have made eye contact while working at AMI there didn’t seem to be any recollection on his part of who I was, or when we worked together. I mean it had been decades, and the man runs in powerful circles. That being said, when I began life at AMI, one of my first jobs I had was working production and traffic on the National Enquirer. But it was only for a few weeks, and at the time I never dealt with David Pecker or actually saw him. 

One last thing in regards to David Pecker running AMI. I have to ponder if his tenure at American Media could be coming to an end. I understand he’s gotten immunity for what he knows and what he can give the investigators, but what if it comes out is that he was aiding Donald Trump, assisting a criminal into power? I have to ask how the money behind American Media thinks of him now? The man might know magazines, obviously he knows the law, considering he made the deal, but you gotta wonder how it looks to the powers that be that the man who runs the tabloid is in bed with treasonous thugs? You want to be considered a real news organization, you can’t be run by people who are criminals or are associated with one who stole the Presidency, can you?  Not that I’m calling David Pecker one, but the what if’s do come to mind. See I told you this might hurt me, what do you think? Now that my full disclosure is out there and my possible future employment at AMI, lets go on to the last of this weeks bombshells. I promise I will be short.

The second lucky winner of immunity this week, so far, could without exaggeration be the final nail into Donald’s coffin. I know I’ve written this before, but trust me, this one is huge. When it was announced that Allen Weisselberg, the CFO and Executive Vice President of the Trump Organization and the Treasurer of the Donald J. Trump Foundation, was granted immunity because Michael Cohen brought him up in conjunction with the payoff of these two lovely ladies and the catch and killing of their stories. One would think, any of the people I mentioned already could help get us to the end of a Trump Presidency, but Allen Weisselberg might be the only one the investigators need to shut not only his Presidency down, but his entire criminal enterprise. This news that Allen Weisselberg, has been given immunity, must have shoved a spike into Trump’s heart and all the members of Donald’s inner circle. I can only imagine the tweets that we will be seeing over the next few days, cause the ones we’ve already gotten are pretty much insane. Maybe they should decide to sedate Trump for a few days, from what we’ve seen, especially lately, the man does need some rest. I also have to throw in, I wonder if they should start a suicide watch on him? I mean the walls are closing in, who knows how Donald will react, when he fully realizes that his family’s accountant, is now giving up the ghost. Point blank, Weisselberg knows where all of Trump’s bodies are buried. He knows about the finances of the Trump organization, not to mention Donald’s taxes themselves. We can finally learn if Trump is really under audit, possibly his first and biggest lie of his political career. Lastly  remember Weisselberg knows how tied up Donald is with the Russians. How they have helped finance his life, his businesses, and that little hotel in Washington, D.C.,  and how much money his family is making from it illegally. Plus he knows, how his sons and daughter and son-in-law are running Donald’s criminal enterprises while they are supposedly in charge.

Phew, talk about a week. We already know Rudy Giuliani’s deaf, dumb and blind, but even he seems to be have been struck mute, at least for the day or two, with the latest revelations. Robert Mueller and his merry band of investigators in one big swoop has shut up or is that shut down the traitors, and sent a real message to the president. So the question I leave you with is, what after all this will make Donald finally give in or give up? Perhaps when one of Trump’s family members sell out their father, or husband or father-in-law, to save themselves from prison or death row? I guess sooner rather than later, we will find out. Now can I call Hillary President, please?

TALK ABOUT MOOD SWINGS, JUST AS TRUMP OUTS HIMSELF AS A COMMIE, THERE ARE TAPES!

In our nation’s darkest hour, finally the light at the end of the tunnel has arrived, maybe its finally time, to take the blinders off, swallow our prides, and admit we all got punked, and Vladimir is pulling the strings.


The End of Democracy © 2018 Neil Feigeles 

I GOTTA BE LOSING MY MIND, just when I’m at my lowest, as our President comes out as a communist who is selling our nation out to the Russian President, incredibly a huge ray of light finally cracks treasonous Trump’s powerful hold over the people’s mind. All the dots are beginning to connect and my latest session sounding like a conspiracist whose having a nervous breakdown gets eviscerated from out of my system. Out of left field I’m hearing Doris Day music and the birds are chirping, when only hours before I was feeling like even the people finally beginning to really rise up was just yet another nice try but no cigar moment. As you will discover, what you are about to read, from my own skewed self critical perspective is someone who is crying for help. It may seem that I’m seeking help for myself, but really its a cry to the heaven’s for people to snap out of it. To save our nation from extinction. Before its too late. This Trump world is exhausting and I am just simply one tired worried American who still hasn’t gotten over how in one night our world, okay my world was shattered, and how quickly a man covered in orange has transformed our nation and its people. Somehow our land of the free, has turned into internment camps and being attacked for simply speaking a foreign tongue. Each step of that journey has been a never ending nightmare for me. And what’s worse, as Trump’s tenure as our dictator in training continued, the citizens of this country who follow him have also transformed into pod people right out of ‘The Invasion of the Body Snatchers’. Every day as Trump destroys something, a knot in my stomach tightens a little bit more, and all hope appears to be disappearing. But just as at my lowest, or something from out of left field comes out that makes me go wait, maybe there is some hope. Perhaps the end is near, but not for our democracy but for Donald J. Trump and his legion of doom.

After the North Korean debacle, the G7 screw-up, the British Prime Minister Theresa Mary oh my God nightmare, which culminated with the Russian Summit. Not to mention Donald getting the chance to choose his next Supreme Court judge, and the fellow he decides to enshrine for at least the next 30 or 40 years as he crowed, Brett Kavanaugh, pretty much is getting the gig, because he out of every one out there is everything he wants, desires and needs. First he’s anti-abortion, he agrees with all the bible trumping zealots that want us to live by their holy book and screw that little piece of paper we call the Constitution. But most importantly, and scariest Brett’s already years ago, came out and wrote a sitting President is too busy doing his job to waste valuable time on preparing for trials of any kind. Screw whatever crimes he may or may not have committed, even if its the selling off of our nation to the biggest benefactor. Therefore all of this Russian nonsense, must take a back seat to Donald systemically taking apart our democracy, while banking billions, decimating our laws and social services and handing over the keys to the Oval office to Vladimir. One would think enough, even for his most ardent followers, but no. There are days, I just want to take that space shuttle into outer space and leave this craziness forever. But then the heaven’s open up and unbelievably there just might be an ending to this horror show that yes only could be written for the movies. Because nothing we’ve lived through could possibly actually be really happening, right? Whomever is controlling the strings here really has to be taking some strong tranquilizers, or has to have one very sick twisted sense of humor.    

The Trumpeter excuse that this whole thing is a witch hunt, because nothing has come out proving Donald was involved somehow in the crime, the stealing of Hillary Clinton’s Presidency and the fleecing of America may have to be retired. The ‘there is no collusion’ punch line that they all spew like vomit, finally might have to be put away for good. I could be grasping at straws, but it seems the last few days might be the turning point of this whole experience. The time in the plot when all hope is lost, that the screenwriters finally work their reel magic. First with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein’s announcement that 12 Russian intelligence officers were charged with the DNC hacking and conspiring to interfere with the 2016 presidential election, occurring right before the Russian Summit, opening many eyes to the truth, even many of the voices on Fox news. Which then was followed up by Trump’s obvious siding with the enemy on foreign land opening some more. Plus Trump’s many walk backs to his “would or wouldn’t” explanation of why he agreed with Putin and disagreed with his own national security advisors and the God damned United States CIA, FBI, CIA, and anyone who isn’t in this crime with him. Maybe the editors of our little movie we are all living under are realizing that this caper has been running a little long, and its time to bring this horror show to a satisfying and crowd pleasing ending. Because out of left field, just as the werewolf is about to take a bite out of our hero, we get the silver bullet. There is an audio tape! Oh my God yes!

The Richard Nixon curse returns! Remember a few months back when Donald whined some conspiracy nonsense about President Barack Obama having “wiretapped” the White House, which of course was debunked as trash. Well, Karma as they say is a bitch because it wasn’t our former and last American President who was pressing the record button, it was his former “fixer” who might have fixed the Trumpster forever. I definitely wasn’t expecting this, but learning that Michael Cohen actually recorded at least one meeting with Donald which the government now has finally opened enough eyes that yes, maybe we as a nation have had it. The evidence I speak of, is an audio tape of Trump discussing a payment to a Playboy model, with whom he had an affair with, and one that the National Enquirer paid off. You see they paid her for her story, and then David Pecker a personal friend of the Donald didn’t publish it. Of note this story was supposed to come out before the election and might have damaged the Trumps coolness with all of his gossip loving followers.  

One would think, so what. Just another notch on Donald’s bedpost, But, when this bit of gossip was first reported, Trump, the man himself was questioned about it, its on video, he said the whole thing never happened, and even better, that he knew nothing about it. He again called it fake news and attacked the press, trying to change the subject as usual. Amazingly this audio recording was made about two months before the 2016 election and was among the materials seized during the April FBI raid on Michael Cohen’s office, home and hotel room. The best part in all this, the audio tape isn’t in the Mueller investigation, its a different one which is actually going to trial now. Its a defamation lawsuit filed by Summer Zervos, ironically a former contestant on The Apprentice, who says Trump sexually assaulted her in 2007 and then called her a liar when she spoke out about it in 2016. Somehow this case is actually going to court, and because it is, Donald could lose everything. Whats even better, the only reason why ‘we the people’ are even learning about it is because the info was leaked, and Rudy Giuliani of all people commented about it. Pretty much waving away attorney client privilege.

So, the press then reported it out the, up to then, privileged intel. The rumor thats going around is that Rudy, the fool himself, actually was the person who leaked it out, so that he could then come out and comment about it. Why would anyone want to do that? Well when you have a client who just outed himself as a communist maybe one needs to change the subject with the press. In the time of Trump, going all illegal is simply a given, when you follow a traitor to your graves. With all the happiness expressed over that possibly silver bullet of big news of an audio tape taking down the president, that is if you can call what I just jotted down happiness. I have to ask, am I the only one who dreads the next day dawning in the time of Trump? Since we might wake up the again to yet another Earth shattering event that either makes you want to scream, shake your head, or sadly which is happening to me in a more common occurrence, that maybe I shouldn’t admit to, tear up, at the insanity that we as a nation are living through. And the worries about where this could be leading. I understand shaking up the system was Trump’s promise, but man does it have to be so not worth waking up to? Okay, before I continue, no I am not depressed or on medication, or seeking the assistance of professional help, I am just tired and emotionally spent from the day in and day out of what ever this is gonna be known as for centuries to come. That is if whats to come doesn’t bring along the end of days, as some of Trump’s most ardent followers appear to be jonesin for. Donald promised to clean up the swamp, but instead look at the dreck that he keeps putting into leadership roles. I can’t figure out which one is worse, and which monster will be the one who will cause the end of our futures.  Which is why I’m here to proclaim that I’ve never been sadder in my life, when it comes to democracy and the future of our nation, and our world. Not to mention what that would mean to all of our lives. 

Its been a very long week after a very long year, and the worst election night of my life. As I almost reach my 59th birthday, for the most part, I’m pretty happy with it, my decisions, how I got to this point and where I might possibly be going in the future. Without sounding corny, I love that I was born in America and that I am an American citizen. How lucky can you get to live in the greatest nation ever to have been put on this planet. I know its not perfect, but I thought we were headed in the right direction. But then a Trumpian event occurs and fears of what might be happening begin to seep throughout my bones, as day by day our lives get turned upside down at what we are witnessing. 

If somehow we get out of this with our democracy still intact, especially if the crimes of Trump’s presidency’s proves as treasonous as they currently appear, the rules of the game have got to get rewritten. Now that we have discovered that yes, in practice, the President of the United States can be above the law, and no that isn’t a good thing. Especially when your President might be an enemy of the people. We are witnessing, we are all living through, a period in time when in a span of a few years, one man, Donald J. Trump could take us from a free society on a course for a brighter tomorrow, into a totalitarian state with just a orange faced glance. When if ever will the ‘powers that be’ in the President’s party say no more? How much more do they need to gain and pocket before even they say, enough is enough? If they do, will it possibly be too late? 

Now I’ve disliked many a Republican President. Must I remind you of The Nixon Years, or Reagans, or even George Walker’s. The only time that comes close to me in this horrible feeling of dread, was when President Bill Clinton was in real danger of being Impeached or of course when Vice President Gore’s seat at the big table was shall we say stolen away… but I can’t remember a time when I was scared for our country. A time where I actually believed the person sitting in the Oval office was a traitor to our nation. Who committed treason by being in bed with the leader of a foreign land. A person who has attacked our democracy and is still doing it, but he refuses to think its relevant or come out with it. The common consensus seems to be, Trump doesn’t want to believe it because that would mean his presidency is questionable. Screw that, that’s his talking point, thats his con. My feeling is he knows its real, because he either in on it or he’s under Putin’s thumb. And worse, he just did it, for the money, and made the biggest windfall in history, by selling our nation out to Vladimir.  

But I must ask, after all I’ve written, why was anyone at all surprised or stunned, the word I kept hearing to describe Trump’s practically climaxing over Vladimir Putin’s lap or his siding with Vladimir over the mountains of evidence. The outrage was so loud, that Trump came out and attempted to shutdown the noise by trying to walk back his shall we say little mess. Which he’s since of course walked back several times with ever worsening results. This has now been followed up by the announced invitation to Vladimir to visit the White House in the fall, sometime near the Midterm elections. It doesn’t sound at all like Donald is spiting at us and showcasing his utter disdain for our democracy, does it? And whats worse, as he’s agreeing and pretty much having sex with Vladimir on the world stage, he still has to rub it in the nose of Hillary Clinton, one of the few people who actually warned all of us about Trump’s connections with Putin. But not just her, he also keeps going after The FBI, all of intelligence, all our allies, the voters of the United States, all the facts, all the history, and all the truth. Oh and about that ‘does Putin have anything on Trump conspiracy’, enough! Perhaps he doesn’t and he’s just in on the scam. Perhaps Donald met him in Russia at the beauty pageant. Perhaps this is all just a deal with the worlds greatest deal maker. Or most likely Trump has sold out our nation for profit. And the sooner you see that the sooner you discover how the blind or brainwashed allowed a Con man to destroy the united States of America. Shame, shame, shame, on everyone who allowed this to happen, and to those who sit back as each day we go further and further down the rabbit hole, a pox on your house as well. What makes matters worse, the Republicans who are supposed to be a separate part of our government are acting as if they work for Donald. Nothing the Democrats propose to stop his treasonous actions are ever allowed to either be put up for a vote or are voted in. 

At least some of the talking heads on Fox and the Republicans in power are mostly saying the right things in regards to their disappointment at how Trump handled the historic meeting. I’ve lost count how many of the talking heads have come out and said what Donald should’ve done or if I was Trump, I would’ve said… but none of them still won’t come out and announce its time to get rid of him. For him to resign. The only real voices of dissent are those walking away from political office, so their words actually matter less. 

One small item, that actually could turn out to be a major screw up by the Russian President I must mention happened during the Helsinki debacle. During their joint press conference, a reporter asked Vladimir Putin if he had anything on Trump, and the Russian president made a joke about it. The look he gave the reported actually chilled me to the bone. But then the magic moment happened where I think he might have stepped in it, when with a comment he uttered that could come back to bite both of these world leaders in their collective asses. Vladimir basically said when Trump was in Russia for the Miss Universe Pageant he didn’t even know Donald was there. He knew of him as some kind of business man, builder, but had never met him or had any dealings with him. Really? Goping off on a tangant of things like, I didn’t even know who he was, and any of this talk of deal making are lies. Mind you for the last decade Donald and his sons and daughter, and son-in-law have all talked about their friendship with Vladimir and how much business that they did with the Russians. Of course all of that speak, ended when Donald announced his run for the White House. Remember all of this, did they or didn’t they, or is that would they or wouldn’t they, could be resolved once Donald J. Trump releases his Tax returns. Remember those? I presume eventually we will see something that proves Vladimir did know of Trump, and hopefully all of his illecit affairs with the Russian leader will be revealed to all. Remember Putin was and possibly still is in charge of the KGB, the man knows everything. I’m actually surprised the reporter who asked the question, if he had anything on the Trumpeters, is still breathing or wasn’t poisoned already. Has anyone checked his conditions since he dared to question the Russian monster? 

But until people like Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell finally realize that yes, Donald has been lying to us all along or at least admit it in public nothing will change till and unless the Democrats win back the majority in the House and the Senate. That it is now time to take the clothespin off of our collective noses, swallow all of our prides, and admit we all got punked. Vladimir is pulling the strings, and Donald’s and/or some of his people are in it with him. How else can you explain the eight Republicans spending our Independence Day in Russia?

So I ask once more, to the powers that be, isn’t it time? Mitch, this is to you specifically, it’s time to end the charade and the crimes being committed against our nation. The only reason why I would think you wouldn’t is, you are in on the whole scam. I get the greed, but now we are talking end of our democracy. How much of a monster could you be? You got a supreme court judge already. You got your blessed tax breaks. You are a much richer man than you used to be, so now it’s time to end it before you help end our democracy. Please. Now for the rest of the Republicans in charge, we’ve got an audio tape which proves Donald Trump knew and lied about his knowledge on a cover up that helped him politically win the presidency, isn’t that the smoking gun, we were all waiting for? How much evidence do you need? For all your gains, everything that you’ve gotten since you all bowed to the decrees of the Trump. You all talk about your patriotism, maybe its finally time to put up or shut up, before we all have yo learn to speak Russian in America, and if you speak English out loud others might beat you up for now speaking a foreign tongue. So has this one finally opened peoples eyes? Or is this just a temporary blip in people’s eyes which Trumps minions will wash away as nothing in a day or so?

Just one man’s opinion.

LOOKS LIKE DONALD OUTSMARTED US ALL, AND WITH MITCH’S HELP ANY CHANCE TO ESCAPE OUR CURRENT NIGHTMARE JUST WENT OUT THE WINDOW

Speaking of nightmares, now we’ve got Internment Camps too. But that’s okay, according to the Trumpeters, its in the bible, so all is good in America, praise Vladimir! 

IF TRUMP GETS HIS WAY SAY GOODBYE TO DEMOCRACY. I wish I was being overly dramatic as opposed to seeing cleared eyed at the dangerous precipice our nation and our world is about to fall over. I’ve spent the last several weeks digesting the horrors that we as a nation are seeing with the despicable way our leader has been treating the refugees entering from the southern border of the United States. As usual with Donald J. Trump, whenever I’ve done this something else explodes which makes yesterdays Atomic blast seem like a distant memory. Scarily in the age of Trump, unless you can crank out commentaries on a daily basis, you pretty much have to write them and hope by the time you’ve dropped your latest, its still something that matters to those you want to spend their valuable time reading them. The abundance of non-stop insanity, which bombards us all in a daily dose of newsworthy events to write about. I must admit, the longer this current insanity continues the harder it is to get up the energy to attack another historic moment in breaking precedence, because just when you do, you sometimes have to scrap the whole thing.

I have mentioned here in the past that my commentaries come out of my seeing something online or on television or in print, that makes me either want to scream out loud or at least express my opinion on it. As the readers here have discovered, I can go on a bit especially when what I find goes so against what whoever is pulling the strings would ever find acceptable that I don’t. I have sadly learned in the age of Trump, if I wait, even a day or two, or worse a week or more, it almost feels like the events of the day are a runaway train and I simply can not catch up. But then eventually something will explode on the scene and that grip on whats right and whats wrong hits me just the right way and out comes my latest stream of consciousness. One of the main reasons Trump has gotten away with so much is because no one can spend too much time on one criminal act, or heinous comment or whatever, before the next one appears. Unnervingly the next one always tops the previous monstrous action, and that of course gets the front page. While yesterdays event, even if it was as big as blowing up the G7, gets forgotten as Junior would call them, nothing burgers. And just like clockwork Trump always sails through.

So just as I was about to write one of my long drawn out arguments of why Trump has showcased once and for all what a monster he is, by starting the age of Trump Internment camps, which horribly I know some day soon will become dutch ovens reminiscent of the Nazi Concentration camps made famous by Donald’s ancestral idol. Honestly I’m just a little bit stunned that the tents aren’t colored in gold. But before I could put my fingers on my keyboard to pound out a few insults, scream at the top of my lungs about his war crimes and try to explain why I found this so horrible, the fear factor just went to DEFCON 5! Justice Anthony McLeod Kennedy, handed in his retirement papers, and Trump gets to choose his second Supreme Court Justice now. I honestly freaked out at what the ramifications of this historic moment meant. How it could shape the future of our nation and destroy the very concept of a Democratic nation.

At first all I thought of was the obvious target, abortions, women’s rights, but then my mind exploded. Besides the fear that those woman’s rights and many others would be striped, and gay rights and possibly their ability to marry might be taken away, our very democracy might be in danger. But then the real horror of what was possibly gonna occur dawned on me and I actually screamed out loud for someone to save us all. Am I the only one? Just listen to the insanity of what could happen if Donald gets to pick a Justice before the next big Election day. If Trump gets his wish and chooses one within weeks, and the Congress has its hearing and its voted on, without a Democratic majority in Congress, Donald gets free range to pick any nominee he wants now. If recent history is any indication, his choices all have  been one dismal failure after the other. So if Trump gets to choose his nominee before the November mid-term elections, and the Republican Congress votes them in, if and when Mueller’s investigation winds up in front of the Supreme Court, Donald can become king of the world. They could help decide to save his presidency. They could give him absolute power. They gave the Presidency to George Walker Bush, remember? Could you imagine if he gets to choose a judge who could be a puppet for his wishes, and his wishes are for Mueller’s investigation to go away and any Impeachment hearing to be decided in his favor? Could you? Obviously I can.

I guess I must suggest that during the questions on the hill, should a litmus test be given? Does his pick have to recuse themselves from any Impeachment vote? Of course then we’ll get the non-stop Trump tweets about how unfair that is. Mitch McConnell performed the heist of the century with his Supreme Court delay’s, that is besides Vladimir’s assistance with Trump’s ascension. He has already come out and announced unlike Obama’s last nominee which he helped stop from getting in, this time there was no need to wait til after the election. I mean its totally different according to the Trumpeters, the last time was for the presidency, this times just the midterms. Its no big deal, the Democrats are just upset they lost the election. And if Mitch gets his way again, the dream of possibly removing Donald from office for his crimes, probably will go out the window for good.   

To make matters worse, there is talk that Justice Kennedy’s son might have been in Trump’s pocket. According to a report by The New York Times reported that ‘The son of the Supreme Court Justice was leading a real-estate division of Deutsche Bank which gave Donald Trump over $1 billion in loans to finance his real-estate projects when other banks wouldn’t,’ The Times article describes an unusually close relationship between Kennedy and Trump and discusses a “quiet campaign” from the White House to encourage Kennedy to retire’. In other words they worked their mojo on Kennedy or worse, the retiring Justice was in on Trumps stealing of our Democracy. As others has mentioned, me thinks someone needs to investigate this possible treasonous act. And if true, should at least delay the Congresses vote on the matter. There is one hope with any of Donald's choices, like with most, sometimes they don’t do exactly what Donald wants them to do. Sessions with his recusal, Rosenstein launching the Robert Mueller investigation when he discovered he was duped. Perhaps our only hope now is whomever Trump picks, maybe when they get in and see all the evidence, see the big picture and disregard the trumped up conspiracies in the matter and they convict him anyway.

Only our glorious leader could be so damned ironic as to announce to the world that he’ll be spending the July 4th holidays, you know America’s celebration of our independence from the Empirical Rule of the British Monarchy, deciding which of the 25 candidates he’s supposedly choosing to be his next Supreme Court Justice. Who among the chosen few will be the person that might cast the deciding vote to throw out any possible eventual Impeachment hearings against him. Lets discount whatever crimes Trump or anyone else actually did. Pretty much stripping away any real hope of removing Donald from office, possibly ever. Unless of course the American people actually do rise up in masses, in numbers never seen before demanding his removal. That is of course if he doesn’t send his now goon squad of White Nationalist hooligans to use our nation’s military force to kill off any resistance. So Donald’s question of ‘what do we have to lose?,’ my guess is, it will be answered very shortly. If it hasn’t been answered already. 

What gets me is how little this nightmare scenario is being talked about. I understand it sounds crazy, or at least a little farfetched, but really how far of a stretch is it? I’m talking about Donald making himself king. The crazies on the right keep talking how there could be a second civil war, if the libtards get their way and remove Trump. Well the way I see it, that as usual the facts are being turned on its head by the monsters in our midst. How ironic is it, apparently millions of nimrods who follow Donald J. Trump like the second coming, would go to war to save a leader who cheated and lied his way in. Who if removed would be so because he was found that he did indeed perform treasonous acts. What then will they do? Continue their bogus civil war, the whole thing probably originally conceived in Russia, and being rounded up like traitors as well. Like the former Confederate Soldiers who refused to give up the ghosts of slavery. Sadly why do I feel that too many of Trump’s minions probably wish that slavery had never been outlawed. See what I just did, I went on a tangent that probably blew it, I went all conspiracy. So let me step back a bit and simply write, that if Trump gets to pick the judge, all rule of law as we know it in the streets of America is on the chomping block. 

Look at what he’s done with the refugee crisis which seemingly has arisen out of nowhere. Use this as a perfect example of whats wrong and why we should all worry. It is maddening with Donald Trump that whenever something he implements goes awry, if there is any really bad press put out there, like putting children in cages or separating them from their parents, it’s always the Democrats fault, in this case it’s a democratic Law he’s blaming for him doing it. We’re just using what the Democrats gave us, its not me, its everyone else. I love the children, this is all wrong. Disregard that I’m the person pulling the strings.

Such a hypocrite, surrounded by a basket full of them, followed like a God by millions of brainwashed sad brain dead sheep. This is the drill. He watches Fox News, oh excuse me, Fox faux news, and one of their hired conspiracist spew nonsense on something. He talks about it. Or the other way around, or even sometimes seemingly at the same time. In this case he and his minions hinted at it for months, he spewed it on twitter. His attorney general implemented it. It gets activated and turns out to be a shit show, so who’s fault is it? Obama’s! The Democrats! Or anyone but those who actually did the crime. Himself! Then their minions come out and lie and make up bull and again your sheep believe. And then whats worse, the so called mainstream media’s way of handling it is bringing on a circus car full of clowns and trying to argue any sense into the inbreds. Of course never succeeding, except for the killing of airtime which should be used to showcase what they’re are doing is wrong. Proving the nonsense they are pitching is all shade camouflaging what the Trumpeters are really doing to our nation. You don’t need to put them on to do that. By putting them on, you are helping their cause and hurting the very thing your channels were created to do, help the American people. 

Yes I am now discussing Trump’s heinous treatment of human beings coming in from other countries. I’m not so sure how smooth my transition was from one monstrous possibility to another real act of monstrous proportions. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see right through their hypocrisy as they come out lying that their kidnapping of children as blackmail to get Trump’s wall funded is in the Bible. Obviously signaling to all their sanctimonious bible thumping fans that it’s a good thing caging babies. I mean at least they aren’t white and they can’t speak English, right? Scream! Apparently if you listen to the monsters, it’s a good thing to cage little boys and little girls, heck for some its the best place they’ve ever lived. Separating them from their families, possibly forever, will build character, make them all true blue patriots. Such American values the trumpeters showcase on a daily basis with their racism and hatred spewing out of every pore. So now we’ve got Internments camps within the borders of these United States, in the year 2018. And worse, we’ve got Trump’s propaganda network Fox news spewing that this all a great thing. Could you be more obnoxious? Could you be more disgusting? You POS, drop dead Nazi scums! Yes I said Nazi! And yes I went there! When I heard Jeff Sessions and Sarah Huckabee Sanders use the God excuse, I wanted to punch both their lights out. But these two aren’t worth a prison sentence, and I’m pretty sure, that each will receive the proper punishment when their time is due. But Jesus, could you imagine? And their flock of sheep that follow deaf, dumb and blind from the truth, believe every lie in the book and disregard any dissenting voices 

I guess the term fiscally conservative Republicans can finally be thrown out the window and the dictionary. I mean besides a tax cut that has already ballooned our deficit to over a trillion dollars, this camp for children and this insane refugee solution, concocted by the Trumpeters are costing millions of unnecessary dollars. I should mention, I keep reading that Donald wants a second tax cut, on top of the first. I know I screamed out loud again. Does this sound familiar? Donald took a problem that actually has a solution that was working, and then blew it all up trying to fix it. Some how with everything Trump, they find a loophole in the system that they could use to upend everything. He may have the worse handlers, but man they do know how to find the needle in the haystack for every problem that faces them. Even if its made up nonsense, somehow it comes out sounding like it was written on one of Moses tablets. Sadly Trump’s solution to the refugee boondoggle takes a page from our not too distant past. A disgusting blemish in the history of our nation, something that has been considered a war crime, the horrific Japanese Internment Camps. Unlike water torture which so far Donald hasn’t been allowed to bring back into use, Trump’s love of using his powers as President has allowed him to make a bigger statement of his hatred for humans and others who don’t follow by the Trump rule of law. Only I can break the law and get away with it, all others much bow to me or get the hell out of my country, and I mean my country.

So Donald has the power, and used it  by creating Internment camps and causing an international nightmare. How long does it take before people wake up and realize whats happening right in front of our eyes? He’s practically playing by the Nazi play book or at least following Vladimir’s example. He comes out one day and says the children are animals, vermin. Then they come out, and only when the shit hits the fan, they say they hate this policy and its other people’s fault. I love the little children Donald whined. They’re caging human beings! Separating families, possibly forever and this dip shit is whining that its not his fault he has to do such terrible things, its that evil man who I replaced. We don’t like seeing animals in cages, but Trump’s minion Jeff Sessions put it into action on his decrees. Trump is such a freaking coward. If you’re gonna be a bastard, do it with pride. You’re the President for God sake, you can do anything and have, and you’re such a egomaniac that you still need to lie about it? What a whiney little bitch, as Bill Maher loves to say, and I love to hear. But this is on you. You demanded it. You signed that crazy signature of yours and Sessions implemented your heinous request. What did you call it? Oh yes, “zero tolerance”  More like zero intelligence and zero human compassion or heart. Much like most things Donald has decreed, something went wrong, apparently none of Trump’s actions are talked over or discussed, and who knows how much of it is winged or on a whim. But somehow its always a shit show and we the American people get screwed. And he and his minions smile as their bank accounts prospers and their souls turn to  black coal.

These Trumpeters are mad geniuses, somehow even turning the most vile of acts, that only tyrants would praise, into something that was found in the bible. Disregarding that that doesn’t make it right, in fact if it was in that sacred book, perhaps it was a teaching moment to showcase what was wrong with it. Like the Tower of Babel. Like when they talk about murder and sin, but the good book is not telling its readers to go out and do the crimes, its teaching them not to. That said, bringing up the good book as an excuse, as evidence that their hatred and vile acts are a good thing, pretty much condemns all of them to eternal damnation. Keep up the good work charlatans, but don’t be surprised when you arrive at The Pearly Gates, they aren’t so pearly and you ain’t entering Heaven. Lets just say, your confessions won’t be helping you this time. Yes, as the Trumpeters explain, there was existing laws on the books, both by George W. Bush, and continued through the early Obama administration, but neither President took this action or interpreted the laws in your inhumane manner. It was only the barbaric brains behind this White House that could have even conceived of the rules the way they did. 

As our democracy apparently begins to take its last gasps of breath, it is rather scary going on social media and seeing the comments by those who follow the Trumpeter spin. Not to mention the bots that are currently in full force these days spewing lies worse than before the last election. Whatever draining the swamp that twitter and facebook had done, seems to have failed miserably. I guess the enemies of the state, are getting the engine running smoothly enough before this coming November’s now most important election is our country’s history. Hillary was right, and so was Donald, the 2016 was this nations most important. Sadly too many people fell for the lies and the bull shit, and Trump got the seat at the table, Hillary unfortunately got the shaft, and our nation got fucked. But that said, because of the ramifications of Trump’s Electoral College win and what he’s been able to accomplish so far, our next election in November is now the most important in history. Simply put, either Democracy might be saved if the Democrats prevail, or it will be taps for us all, if the Trumpeters do. Because King Drumpf is on the horizon.

And what makes it the most scary, in the age when polls seems to be more wrong than right, are what can be found on social media. Why is it that every Trump fan or bot has thousands if not hundreds of thousands of followers, and the voices of the resistance only have a few hundred or so if that many? I only bring this into the conversation because that is what is driving the conversation on social media. As I’ve already mentioned here the problem with the media is that they keep giving a stage to the monsters. Their excuses are always, its better to let them  be seen and heard and shown as the fools that they be, then keep them hidden away, gestating in the shadows before erupting into a full blown uprising, like the Tea Party was and the Trumpeters are. Of course I would be a hypocrite if I didn’t also mention those on the left who sometimes come off sounding like crazed 1950 socialists dreaming of a new world order. These two heart stopping events, trump choosing yet another Supreme Court Judge and the Trump Interment Tent cities, are just the latest in a string of wrong headed moves by a man setting our nation on a cross for destruction. You wanna talk the Korean earthquake or the Puerto Rican failure  or the $1 trillion dollar deficit, when does the powers that be say enough is enough?

Its like they’ve all drunk the Kool-Aid, and afterwards if there is a God, they’ll all get what they deserve, while the rest of us suffer possibly forever trying to clean up the rubble he’s caused. If its even possible this time. I guess my final question today is, if Trump does try to take over as I fear, will his minions finally say no or will they continue to fall under his spell? If he doesn’t, and actually acts like a President and leaves without a fight, what will our nation look like on the day he escorted out? Will his replacement be a Trumpeter or will it be whomever the Gods have come up with this time to save us from yet another Republican mess. And if history again repeats itself, till the sheep once again rise up and vote in yet another liar to destroy all the good the Democrats have done once more. And the vicious circle will continue till our great nation eats itself whole or survives and somehow arrives at the next stage in the democratic experiment that is known as the United States of America. 

Just one man’s opinion.
